The GREAT TELESCOPE.

'rho work OF Putting u Together Pro.
Crosses Slowly aud Carefully.
SAN Francisco, July 22.-The five
large castings that, when together,
will form the supporting column Of
the largest telescope the world has
ever seen, reached San Jose, California,
last week, and are now being conveyed
to the top of Mount Hamilton, twen-
ty-six miles away. The castings in
the aggregate weigh about thirty tons.
The great dome is all completed. The
lens, to which all other things. there
are subordinate, is in the safe, where
it has been since it came overland sew
eral months ago. No crown jewel or
golden nugget was ever more carefully
guarded than that glass, upon which
the most expert artisans of the world
have spent years of labor. Now all
that is needed to make the telescope
complete is the long steel tubing,
three feet in diameter. Into an end
of this the lens is to be fitted, and
through it, when carefully adjusted on
pier and pivot in the great dome, as
trOnomers are to gaze and endeavor
there to fathOm some of the hitherto
hidden facts of the starry realms. The
tubing is being made in Cleveland,
Ohio, and it is expected will be ready,
at the farthest, in the course of two
months.
An Oakland Girl In . Trance for Many

SAN Francisco, July PA daugh-
ter of Captain Of Police w. R. Thomas,
OF Oakland, CAL, presents a peculiarly
interesting case to medical men. She
is given to cataleptic frances, in which
she remains for weeks without regain
ing consciousness. At one time she
slept FIVE weeks, and at another six.
She is now suffering from one of the
attacks. Her body is rigid, and all APP
pearance of life has departed. 1t is
over five weeks since she went into
the trance, and at no time since has
she recovered consciousness for more
than an hour. For four weeks she
slept without once waking, but now
she wakens once every twenty-four
hours and remains awake for few
minutes. She takes no nourishment
| all this time, but does not lose flesh or
strength. In fact, during the six
weeks of the trance, though taking no
food, she has gained between four and
five pounds in weight. At times she
is sensible to what is going on around
her, but is incapable of indicating the
fact. Medical skill has exhausted it.

Few Facilities for Bathiny.

Statistics collected by DR. Rhoe show
that iive-siNths Of the inhabitants of all
cities in this country have no ia
cilities for bathing. except such rs are
afforded by a pail and Il sponge, or
al easily accessible river, lake, or some
other body of water. The establishment
of public baths is urgently recommended,
both as sanitary as well as moral
measure. Tub or pool baths are objec-
tionable both on account of the expense
and lack of privacy in the latter, The
spray bath. in Use i'll the French and Ger
man army barracks, are recommended.
These are not at all expensive, either in
the first cost or the administration, and
allow each bather absolute privacy, and
the opportunity for a thorough cleansing
in clean water Public baths should be
open the year round, and not only during
the summer months -Bostou Herald
